(TRENTON, NJ – July 17, 2023) To celebrate National Homeownership Month, the African American Chamber of Commerce of New Jersey’s (AACCNJ) Mobile Academy and New Jersey Housing & Mortgage Finance Agency (NJHMFA) debuted a new, free webinar series: “Pathway to Homeownership.” Topics discussed include grant and financing programs, closing cost assistance, and first-time buyer concerns. Attendees also receive direct coaching and assistance from real estate professionals during the live question and answer portion of the webinar.
“Homeownership is a critical step toward generational wealth, and often one of the biggest obstacles to homeownership is a lack of education about the home-buying process,” noted John E. Harmon, Sr., IOM, AACCNJ’s Founder, President and CEO. “This free webinar series provides a step-by-step approach to successfully owning a home and attempts to shift the paradigm of 35-37% of African Americans owning homes compared to 74% of white homeownership.”
The webinar is offered every first Wednesday of the month through December 6, 2023, 6-7 p.m. Click here to register for the session scheduled for August 2.
